Advertising L2 Bundle Member Link Attributes in IS-IS

Abstract

There are deployments where the Layer 3 interface on which IS-IS operates is a Layer 2 interface bundle. Existing IS-IS advertisements only support advertising link attributes of the Layer 3 interface. If entities external to IS-IS wish to control traffic flows on the individual physical links which comprise the Layer 2 interface bundle link attribute information about the bundle members is required.

This document introduces the ability for IS-IS to advertise the link attributes of layer 2 (L2) bundle members.

Table of Contents

1. Introduction

There are deployments where the Layer 3 interface on which an IS-IS adjacency is established is a Layer 2 interface bundle, for instance a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) [IEEE802.1AX]. This reduces the number of adjacencies which need to be maintained by the routing protocol in cases where there are parallel links between the neighbors. Entities external to IS-IS such as Path Computation Elements (PCE) [RFC4655] may wish to control traffic flows on individual members of the underlying Layer 2 bundle. In order to do so link attribute information about individual bundle members is required. The protocol extensions defined in this document provide the means to advertise this information.

This document introduces a new TLV to advertise link attribute information for each of the L2 bundle members which comprise the Layer 3 interface on which IS-IS operates.

[SR-ISIS] introduces a new link attribute - adjacency segment identifier (Adj-SID) - which can be used as an instruction to forwarding to send traffic over a specific link. This document introduces additional sub-TLVs to advertise Adj-SIDs for L2 Bundle members.

Note that the new advertisements defined in this document are intended to be provided to external (to IS-IS) entities. The following items are intentionally not defined and/or are outside the scope of this document:

2. L2 Bundle Member Attributes TLV

A new TLV is introduced to advertise L2 Bundle member attributes. Although much of the information is identical to and uses the same sub-TLVs included in Extended IS-Neighbor advertisements (TLVs 22 and 222), a new TLV is used so that changes to the advertisement of the L2 Bundle member link attributes does not trigger unnecessary action by the [ISO10589] Decision process.

Advertisement of this information implies that the identified link is a member of the L2 Bundle associated with the identified Parent L3 Neighbor and that the member link is operationally up. Therefore advertisements MUST be withdrawn if the link becomes operationally down or it is no longer a member of the identified L2 Bundle.

This new TLV utilizes the sub-TLV space defined for TLVs 22, 23, 141, 222, and 223.

The following new TLV is introduced:

NOTE: Only one Parent L3 Neighbor Descriptor is present in a given TLV. Multiple L2 Bundle Attribute Descriptors may be present in a single TLV.

2.1. Parallel L3 Adjacencies

When there exist multiple L3 adjacencies to the same neighbor additional information is required to uniquely identify the L3 Neighbor. One and only one of the following three sub-TLVs is used to uniquely identify the L3 adjacency:

When the P-bit is set in the flags field in the Parent L3 Neighbor Descriptor one and only one of the above sub-TLVs MUST be present. The chosen sub-TLV MUST immediately follow the flags field described in Section 2.

These sub-TLVs MAY be omitted if no parallel adjacencies to the neighbor exist.

2.2. Shared Attribute sub-TLVs

These sub-TLVs advertise a single copy of an attribute (e.g. link bandwidth). The attribute applies to all of the L2 Bundle Members in the set advertised under the preceding  L2 Bundle Member Attribute Descriptor. No more than one copy of a given sub-TLV in this category may appear in the set of sub-TLVs under the preceding L2 Bundle Member Attribute Descriptor. If multiple copies of a given sub-TLV are present all copies MUST be ignored.

The set of L2 Bundle Member Descriptors which may be advertised under a single L2 Bundle Member Attribute Descriptor is therefore limited to bundle members which share the set of attributes advertised in the shared attribute sub-TLVs.

All existing sub-TLVs defined in the IANA Sub-TLVs for TLVs 22, 23, 141, 222, and 223 registry are in the category of shared attribute sub-TLVs unless otherwise specified in this document.

3. Advertising L2 Bundle Member Adj-SIDs

[SR-ISIS] defines sub-TLVs to advertise Adj-SIDs for L3 adjacencies. However these sub-TLVs only support a advertisement of a single Adj-SID. As it is expected that each L2 Bundle member will have unique Adj-SIDs in many deployments it is desirable to define a new sub-TLV which allows more efficient encoding of a set of Adj-SIDs in a single sub-TLV. Two new sub-TLVs are therefore introduced to support advertising Adj-SIDs for L2 Bundle members. The format of the new sub-TLVs is similar to that used for L3 adjacencies, but is optimized to allow advertisement of a set of Adj-SIDs (one per L2 Bundle Member) in a single sub-TLV.

The two new sub-TLVs defined in the following sections do not fall into the category of shared attribute sub-TLVs.

3.1. L2 Bundle Member Adjacency Segment Identifier sub-TLV

This sub-TLV is used to advertise Adj-SIDs for L2 Bundle Members associated with a parent L3 adjacency which is Point-to-Point. The following format is defined for this sub-TLV:

<dt>Weight:</dt>
<dd>1 octet.  The value represents the weight of the Adj-SID
        for the purpose of load balancing.  The use of the weight is
        defined in <xref target="RFC8402"/>.</dd>
</dl>

<aside><t>NOTE: Flags and weight are shared by all L2 Bundle Members
    listed in the L2 Bundle Attribute Descriptor.</t></aside>

<dl>
<dt>L2 Bundle Member Adj-SID Descriptors. There <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be one descriptor
     for each of the L2 Bundle Members advertised under the preceding
     L2 Bundle Member Attribute Descriptor. Each descriptor consists 
     of one of the following fields:

      SID/Index/Label: according to the V and L flags, it contains
        either:

        *  A 3 octet local label where the 20 rightmost bits are used
           for encoding the label value.  In this case the V and L 
           flags <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be set.

        *  A 4 octet index defining the offset in the SID/Label space
           advertised by this router. See <xref target="SR-ISIS"/>.
           In this case V and L flags <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be unset.


3.2. L2 Bundle Member LAN Adjacency Segment Identifier sub-TLV

This sub-TLV is used to advertise Adj-SIDs for L2 Bundle Members associated with a parent L3 adjacency which is a LAN adjacency. In LAN subnetworks, the Designated Intermediate System (DIS) is elected and originates the Pseudonode-LSP (PN-LSP) including all neighbors of the DIS. When Segment Routing is used, each router in the LAN MAY advertise the Adj-SID of each of its neighbors on the LAN. Similarly, for each L2 Bundle Member a router MAY advertise an Adj-SID to each neighbor on the LAN.

The following format is defined for this sub-TLV:

     Type: 42 (suggested value to be assigned by IANA) (1 octet)
     Length: variable (1 octet)
     Neighbor System ID: 6 octets

 
     Flags: 1 octet field of following flags:

          0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
         +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
         |F|*|V|L|S|P|   |
         +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

        where:

         NOTE: The flags are deliberately kept congruent to the flags 
         in the L3 LAN_ADJ-SID defined in <xref target="SR-ISIS"/>.
         * indicates a flag used in the L3 Adj-SID sub-TLV but which is
         NOT used in this sub-TLV. These bits <bcp14>SHOULD</bcp14> be sent as 0 and 
         <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be ignored on receipt.

         F-Flag: Address-Family flag.  If unset, then the Adj-SID refers
         to an L2 Bundle Member with outgoing IPv4 encapsulation. If set
         then the Adj-SID refers to an L2 Bundle Member with outgoing
         IPv6 encapsulation.

         V-Flag: Value flag.  If set, then the Adj-SID carries a value.
         By default the flag is SET.

         L-Flag: Local Flag.  If set, then the value/index carried by
         the Adj-SID has local significance.  By default the flag is
         SET.

         S-Flag.  Set Flag.  When set, the S-Flag indicates that the
         Adj-SID refers to a set of L2 Bundle Members (and therefore
         <bcp14>MAY</bcp14> be assigned to other L2 Bundle Members as well).

         P-Flag.  Persistent flag.  When set, the P-Flag indicates that
         the Adj-SID is persistently allocated, i.e., the Adj-SID value
         remains consistent across router restart and/or interface flap.

         Other bits: <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be zero when originated and ignored when
         received.

    Weight: 1 octet.  The value represents the weight of the Adj-SID
    for the purpose of load balancing.  The use of the weight is
    defined in <xref target="RFC8402"/>.

    NOTE: Flags and weight are shared by all L2 Bundle Members
    listed in the L2 Bundle Attribute Descriptor.

    L2 Bundle Member LAN Adj-SID Descriptors. There <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be one
    descriptor for each of the L2 Bundle Members advertised 
    under the preceding L2 Bundle Member Attribute Descriptor.
    Each descriptor consists of one of the following fields:

      SID/Index/Label: according to the V and L flags, it contains
        either:

        *  A 3 octet local label where the 20 rightmost bits are used
           for encoding the label value.  In this case the V and L 
           flags <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be set.

        *  A 4 octet index defining the offset in the SID/Label space
           advertised by this router. See <xref target="SR-ISIS"/>.
           In this case V and L flags <bcp14>MUST</bcp14> be unset.
 

4. IANA Considerations

This document adds the following new TLV to the IS-IS TLV Codepoints registry.

The name of the Sub-TLVs for TLVs 22, 23, 141, 222, and 223 registry needs to be changed to Sub-TLVs for TLVs 22, 23, 25, 141, 222, and 223 registry. An additional column needs to be added to the registry to indicate which sub-TLVs may appear in the new L2 Bundle Member Attributes TLV. The column for TLV 25 has one of the following three values:

y:
sub-TLV may appear in TLV 25 but MUST NOT be shared by multiple L2 Bundle Members
y(s):
sub-TLV may appear in TLV 25 and MAY be shared by multiple L2 Bundle Members
n:
sub-TLV MUST NOT appear in TLV 25

The following table indicates the appropriate settings for all currently defined sub-TLVs as regards their use in the new L2 Bundle Member Attributes TLV.

5. Security Considerations

The IS-IS protocol has supported the advertisement of link attribute information, including link identifiers, for many years. The advertisements defined in this document are identical to existing advertisements defined in [RFC4202], [RFC5305], [RFC7810], and [SR-ISIS] - but are associated with L2 links which are part of a bundle interface on which the IS-IS protocol operates. There are therefore no new security issues introduced by the extensions in this document.

As always, if the protocol is used in an environment where unauthorized access to the physical links on which IS-IS PDUs are sent occurs then attacks are possible. The use of authentication as defined in [RFC5304] and [RFC5310] is recommended to prevent such attacks.

Appendix A. Example Encoding

Below is an example encoding of L2 Bundle advertisements in a case where we have two parallel adjacencies to the same neighbor whose system-id is 1234.1234.1234.00. The two L2 bundles have the following sets of attributes:

L3 Adjacency #1

L3 IPv4 local link address: 192.0.2.1

Four bundle members with the following attributes:

Table 4
Num Link Local ID Bandwidth Adj-SID/Weight
1 0x11111111 1G 0x11111/1
2 0x11112222 1G 0x11112/1
3 0x11113333 10G 0x11113/1
4 0x11114444 10G 0x11114/1

L3 Adjacency #2

L3 IPv4 local link address: 192.0.2.2

Three bundle members with the following attributes:

Table 5
Num Link Local ID Bandwidth Adj-SID/Weight
1 0x22221111 10G 22221/1
2 0x22222222 10G 22222/1
3 0x22223333 10G 22223/1

This requires two TLVs, one for each L3 adjacency.

TLV for Adjacency #1:
